Abstract:
ABSTRACTObjective: to promote the interdisciplinary relationship between pedagogical knowledge and the concepts and practices of health education within schools. Method: this is a descriptive exploratory study conducted in state schools in Santa Maria, with participation of 207 teachers. Results: indicate that the relationship between parents and children (49%) is the most discussed topic in the classroom. 24% said that the talks with health professionals have more success, and these are more prepared to work in health education with students, 12% express that the teacher must work health education in their discipline, 8% delegate the responsibility to science teachers and 2% believe it does not work. Teachers say the issues related to sexuality are far from being unveiled in the family, school and society. Conclusion: it is noted that the curriculum as a means that enables learning in health should address the real problems of life of students at school in a flexible, dynamic, ongoing and interdisciplinary way in collaboration with the various scientific fields. Descriptors: health; education; faculty, interdisciplinary research.RESUMOObjetivo: fomentar a relação interdisciplinar entre os conhecimentos pedagógicos e as noções e práticas de educação para a saúde no interior das escolas. Método: trata-se de um estudo descritivo exploratório, realizado em escolas públicas estaduais de Santa Maria, RS, com participação de 207 professores. O projeto foi aprovado pelo Comitê de Ética e registrado no CEP/UNIFRA: 262.2007.2 e no CONEP: 1246. Resultados: apontam que o relacionamento entre pais e filhos (49%) é o tema mais discutido em sala de aula. 24% afirmam que as palestras com os profissionais da saúde possuem mais êxito, além destes serem mais preparados para trabalhar a educação para a saúde com os alunos; 12% expressa que o professor deve trabalhar a educação para a saúde em sua disciplina, 8% delegam a responsabilidade aos professores de ciências e 2% acreditam que não funciona. Os professores afirmam que as questões relacionadas à sexualidade estão longe de serem desveladas na família, na escola e na sociedade. Conclusão: salienta-se que a organização curricular, como meio que possibilita a aprendizagem em saúde, deve abordar os problemas reais da vida dos alunos na escola de maneira flexível, dinâmica, permanente e de maneira interdisciplinar, em colaboração com as diferentes áreas do conhecimento científico. Descritores: saúde; educação; docentes; pesquisa interdisciplinar.RESUMENObjetivo: promover la relación interdisciplinaria entre el conocimiento y la enseñanza de los conceptos y prácticas de educación para la salud en escuelas.

Abstract:
This article explores the unique circumstances surrounding the provincial school at Telegraph Creek in northwestern British Columbia, which was initially established for white settler children by Presbyterian missionaries in 1906. Local public school trustees permitted the attendance of Indigenous (specifically Tahltan) children year after year to maintain the minimum enrolment required to receive provincial funding. Combined with an annual tuition grant from the Department of Indian Affairs for the schooling of status Indian children, the Telegraph Creek public school functioned as an integrated school until provincial, federal, and missionary authorities interfered in the 1940s. This paper demonstrates how decisions made by both provincial and Indian Affairs officials leading up to the 1949 cost-sharing agreement to build a new school at Telegraph Creek were far from benign. Indigenous children in northwest British Columbia became the objects of a post-war educational policy that promoted integrated schooling and, ironically, facilitated segregation.

Abstract:
O presente estudo tem como objetivo identificar a percepção da criança típica em relação à convivência com a criança com deficiência dentro do ambiente escolar, observando suas interações e seu conhecimento referente à deficiência, além de verificar a importância da colaboração de um profissional da terapia ocupacional dentro desse espaço. É um estudo de caráter qualitativo, sendo utilizado como material de avaliação um questionário aberto sobre a percepção da criança típica em relação ao colega com deficiência, um questionário para coleta de dados demográficos e um questionário a ser respondido em forma de desenho pelas crianças. A análise de dados qualitativos de Bardin (1977) foi empregada para interpretar os resultados das entrevistas. Participaram do estudo oito crianças entre 5 e 8 anos de idade. Os resultados demonstraram que as crianças típicas não compreendem o termo deficiência como algo que exclui a participação do colega com deficiência das atividades escolares, entretanto sabem observar as limitações apresentadas. Neste estudo, as crianças típicas não demonstraram preconceito em relação às diferenças, mas reproduziram percepções construídas socialmente, retratando os pensamentos de pessoas de sua convivência sobre a criança com deficiência. Acredita-se que a convivência entre as crianças produz uma sociedade mais diversa e aberta a conviver com as diferenças.Palavras-chave: Deficiência. Inclusão Escolar. Terapia Ocupacional.The perception of the typical child about the disabled child in a school of regular education of the public network of the city of Pelotas ABSTRACTThe objective of this study is to identify the typical child's perception regarding the coexistence with the child with disabilities within the school environment, observing their interactions and their knowledge regarding the disability, as well as to verify the importance of the collaboration of an occupational therapy professional within space. It is a qualitative study, being used as an evaluation material an open questionnaire about the typical child's perception in relation to the colleague with a disability, a questionnaire for the collection of demographic data and a questionnaire to be answered in the form of a drawing by the children. Bardin's (1977) qualitative data analysis was used to interpret the interview results. Eight children between 5 and 8 years of age participated in the study. The results showed that typical children do not understand the term disability as something that excludes the participation of the disabled classmate of the school activities, however they know to observe the presented limitations. In this study, typical children did not show prejudice in relation to differences, but reproduced socially constructed perceptions, portraying the thoughts of people living with them about the disabled child. It is believed that the coexistence between children produces a society more diverse and open to live with the differences.Keywords: Disability. School Inclusion.

Abstract:
This article begins by briefly surveying relevant international human rights law concerning the right to education and critiques its failure to guarantee children an education which is free from parental and/or religious domination. It then makes a positive case for guaranteeing children the right to ‘education for humanity’, meaning an education which equips them to be citizens of the world rather than captives of a particular creed, view of history or community tradition. It argues that conflicts could be reduced if schools were to focus on conveying an understanding of a wide range of beliefs and cultures. The piece then tests this position by considering the current education system in Northern Ireland, looking at six dimensions to the ongoing influence of religion on that system. It makes some suggestions for reform and ends with a more general proposal for a guaranteed right to education for humanity worldwide.

Abstract:
During the 1840s and 1850s, members of the Creek Nation rejected schools as a colonial tool and instead experimented with various forms of education to fit their own local and national needs. Diverse individuals and communities articulated educational visions for their nation in conversation with fellow citizens, national leaders, and U.S. educators. Rather than embrace education to assimilate into the American republic, Creeks turned to schools and English literacy as one strategy to shape their own society and defend it from further Euro-American colonial policies. By the end of the 1850s, they had established a fledgling national school system consisting of both neighborhood and mission schools. These institutions reflected and reinforced changes in race, class, gender, culture, and religion in the antebellum Creek Nation.

AbstractObjectiveTo build a life table and determine the factors related to the time of treatment of undernourished children at a nutrition rehabilitation centre (CREN), São Paulo, Brazil.DesignNutritional status was assessed from weight-for-age, height-for-age and BMI-for-age Z-scores, while neuropsychomotor development was classified according to the milestones of childhood development. Life tables, Kaplan–Meier survival curves and Cox multiple regression models were employed in data analysis.SettingCREN (Centre of Nutritional Recovery and Education), São Paulo, Brazil.SubjectsUndernourished children (n 228) from the southern slums of São Paulo who had received treatment at CREN under a day-hospital regime between the years 1994 and 2009.ResultsThe Kaplan–Meier curves of survival analysis showed statistically significant differences in the periods of treatment at CREN between children presenting different degrees of neuropsychomotor development (log-rank = 6·621; P = 0·037). Estimates based on the multivariate Cox model revealed that children aged ≥24 months at the time of admission exhibited a lower probability of nutritional rehabilitation (hazard ratio (HR) = 0·49; P = 0·046) at the end of the period compared with infants aged up 12 months. Children presenting slow development were better rehabilitated in comparison with those exhibiting adequate evolution (HR = 4·48; P = 0·023). No significant effects of sex, degree of undernutrition or birth weight on the probability of nutritional rehabilitation were found.ConclusionsAge and neuropsychomotor developmental status at the time of admission to CREN are critical factors in determining the duration of treatment.

Abstract:
Este artigo apresentará uma discussão sobre a educação inclusiva e noções de deficiência. As reflexões são resultado de um estudo que produziu quatro narrativas (registradas por meio da história oral) em que se revelaram concepções sobre a deficiência elaboradas por professores que convivem com crianças com deficiência. Os objetivos do texto são, portanto, apresentar um repertório teórico que dá base para as leituras feitas das entrevistas; refletir sobre como se produziu os registros por meio da história oral; e apontar reflexões iniciais sobre o que aparece em comum nessas narrativas dos professores. A análise inicial que apresentamos aqui se norteia pelas contribuições da linha de estudos teóricos chamados disability studies e pela leitura das narrativas. Tal diálogo permitiu compreender como se dá a construção de sentidos e de significados relacionados à criança com deficiência para esses sujeitos. O estudo preocupa-se com tais concepções, pois acredita que podem influenciar nos contextos de formação, no seu desenvolvimento humano e processos identitários. Palavras-chave: Educação inclusiva, história oral, narrativa, deficiência, identidade AbstractThis paper will present a discussion on inclusive education and disability. The reflections are the result of a study that produced four narratives (recorded through Oral History) that proved concepts on disability prepared by teachers and parents living with children with disabilities.

AbstractObjectiveTo evaluate nutritional recovery patterns in 106 undernourished children assisted by the Center of Nutritional Recovery and Education (CREN, in Portuguese) between January 1995 and December 1999.DesignCREN assists undernourished children aged 0 to 72 months living in the southern regions of Sao Paulo, in an outpatient setting. Nutritional status was assessed by Z-scores of weight-for-age, height-for-age and weight-for-height. Nutritional recovery evaluation considered Z-score gains in weight-for-age and height-for-age, grouping into four categories (Z-score increment of 0·50 between groups). Children with birth weight less than 2500 g were classified as low birth weight (LBW), while those born at term and with LBW were classified as small for gestational age.SettingCREN (Center of Nutritional Recovery and Education in Portuguese), Sao Paulo, Brazil.SubjectsOne hundred and six children from CREN.ResultsAmong the 106 evaluated children, ninety-eight (92·5 %) recovered their weight or height and seventy-two (67·9 %) recovered both. Nearly half of studied children presented a nutritional recovery (increase in Z-score) of more than 0·50 in height-for-age (46·2 %) and about 40 % in weight-for-age (38·7 %). Multivariate analysis showed that treatment duration and initial weight-for-age contributed to weight-for-age Z-score increment, explaining 25 % of the variation; and treatment duration, initial height-for-age and weight-for-age Z-score increment contributed to height-for-age Z-score increment, explaining 62 % of the variation.ConclusionsOur findings show that nutritional recovery among children who attended CREN was influenced primarily by the degree of nutritional deficit at admission. It has also been shown that biological variables are more important than socio-economic status in determining the rate of nutritional recovery.

Abstract:
It is widely known that when used intentionally and appropriately, technology and interactive media are effective tools to support learning and development. In recent years, there has been a push to introduce coding and computational thinking in early childhood education, and robotics is an excellent tool to achieve this. This chapter presents some results obtained in the development of a learning experience in computational thinking using Bee-Bot educational robotics. The experience involved 47 preschoolers of a kindergarten in Crete, Greece during the period 2019-2020. The study reports statistically significant learning gains between the initial and final assessment of children's computational thinking skills. It was found that children in the treatment group who engaged in the robotic curricular intervention performed better on CT tests. This finding shows that an enhanced teaching experience using robots was beneficial for improving young children's computational thinking skills. The implications for designing appropriate curricula using robots for kindergarteners are addressed.

Abstract:
The aim of this work is two-fold. On the one hand, the authors wish to provide relevant information to educators willing to develop an educational robotics (ER) curriculum. They thus provide the current state of the art in the field of ER and the various approaches reported in the literature. They also provide examples of how computational thinking (CT) can be applied in ER and main theories behind ER: constructivism, constructionism, and inquiry-based learning. As ER requires problem-solving abilities, they discuss the link between CT and metacognition, which is considered one of the required educational improvements of the 21st century (also related to the role of gender in STEM methodologies). On the other hand, they wish to present their methodology to teach coding and ER (coding robots through exploring their affordances – CREA), how it was designed, and its main outcomes. It aims at teaching programming and robotics to children in primary school, focusing not on only the performance of the students, but also the cultivation of collaboration, communication, creativity, and critical thinking.

After a brief historical introduction to the disciplines that intertwine the design of Gamification applications, such as User interaction, User Interface, and Game Design, authors analyze the real areas in which Gamification can be applied with verifiable results, citing scientific studies and examples of applications. We will see then how from the video games Toca Boca for children, to the “tourist” version of Assassin's Creed Oringis presented at the British Museum, up to the latest interactive applications for business training, the techniques of the game are exceeding the playful areas to make more deep human interaction with the real surrounding it.
